>>396706housing costs arent bad everywhere in ND. theyre slowly improving. yeah if your living in the middle of Williston or Watford city it can be pretty high but if you can live a little farther towards the outskirts of the oilfields its alot cheaper. definitely helps to be here to be able to look around. craigslist can be a good place ot look for housing but you have to be careful. there are people who will just gouge you on rent price but you dont have to take it. keep looking. check with some of the local realty management places here. they have alot to choose form. best option ive seen yet. otherwise make your employer provide for or at least pay for housing for you. the know what its like here they should help you out. make it part of your compensation. any good company is not going to want you living in your car trying to sleep outside in the winter. people fucking die trying that shit
